GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 661380
Navigation in Firefox can fail when navigating vertically within the content
Last modified: 2011-10-14 14:02:29 UTC
Since I updated to Gnome and Orca3.2, I am not able to navigate on pages with enumerations properly. Within the according parts of those pages, the focus seems to hang when moving vertically from element to element, lines are niether shown on braille display nor read by tts. When moving the cursor from character to character in the according line, the output is updated. An example: https://bbs.archlinux.de/viewtopic.php?id=19998 For any reason, the English version of this article works without trouble: http://www.archlinux.org/news/gnome-320-in-extra/ My distro: Arch Linux with kernel 3.0 Gnome: 3.2 Orca: 3.2 Firefox: 7.0.1-1
1. Could you please provide a full debug.out? Please see http://live.gnome.org/Orca/Debugging for a couple of different options for doing so. 2. Could you please download and try an earlier version of Firefox with Orca 3.2 and see if the problem persists there? I'd like to know if this is the result of a change made to Firefox. Thanks!
I was now able to try several Firefox versions down to 4.0.1 and had the same problems in those versions. Is there another component which needs to be downgraded?
Please do not downgrade anything else. However, if you would provide the requested full debug.out that too would be helpful. Thanks again!!
Created attachment 198886 [details] errorlog after modifying orca costumization file for debugging
Creating the debug.out file is currently not possible for me, because: * I am not able to change any key bindings in Orca preferences. When I am asked to enter the keybinding and doing so, it jumps to the search field without changing anything. Seems to be another bug which needs to be filed. * Including the lines (like described in the wiki) to ~/.local/share/orca/orca-customizations.py and restarting Orca with "orca -debug" leads to the attached error log; Orca won't start any more. Specifying a debug.out file makes no difference.
Ugh. That's wiki fail. I just updated the second set of instructions. You need to also import time. Sorry about that! As for rebinding, we have an opened bug for that (bug 660099). But as you will see there, that is not really our bug. The bug is caused by a bug in pygobject introspection and we cannot work around that bug I'm afraid. :-( That pygobject bug is bug 660196.
Created attachment 198888 [details] Orca debug output This also covers the second bug I filed (not able to read the whole document in Firefox).
This is a result of a pyatspi bug (bug 661613). It will need to be fixed there.
Since the pyatspi2 bug has been fixed, this issue should now be taken care of. I'm going to mark at as a dup since there's nothing to fix in Orca w.r.t. this issue. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 661613 ***
Thx...Everything works fine now after having upgraded from git.
